    German Roy Keane?

    Maybe its cause we were ****ed, but, did anyone see the German geezer in the Schlossplatz u-bahn station who was the spit of Roy Keane. A group of 20 mad drunk Irish fans crowding round him, first he was scared, then bemused, then scared again.

    Greatlaugh altogether.
    Here they come! It’s the charge of the “Thanks” Brigade!

    Torsten Frings did a pretty good job on the pitch of playing like Roy Keane.

    Best outfield player on the park by a mile.

    He got a two match ban after aiming a punch at an Argentinian (Cruz, I think?) after the penalty shoot-out in the GER v ARG game.

    He was suspended for only 1 game (semi final).

    Thought he got a two match ban, the second of which was suspended subject to a period of probation. This would have allowed him to play in the final or 3/4 place playoff, which he did against Portugal. Seem to remember he got a yellow card very early in that game as well. Don't know what happens to this second match ban.
